The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
Amid the Grand Emperor's cries, the treasure seal spun up into the air, its precious light bursting forth, and the Grand Emperor's head within the seal gave a muffled groan as his spiritual consciousness was stirred beyond his control, strange Dao patterns surfacing across the face of the seal! Boom!
Shen Mu's strike with the seal shattered mountains and split the earth, and the Grand Emperor's head felt his own spiritual consciousness turned into the energy of the treasure seal, for Shen Mu had not used his own cultivation in this blow but only driven the Four Mines Seal, and it was those four mineral veins that absorbed his energy and transformed it into might!
"Damn it, you have refined me into a treasure! " The Grand Emperor's head cursed aloud, yet seeing Shen Mu about to drive the seal again, he cried hastily: "Mu Heavenly Venerable, let us talk this over! " Shen Mu stayed his hand and summoned the seal back, saying with a kindly face: "Brother Dao, will you not reconsider the matter of Yun Heavenly Venerable and Ling Heavenly Venerable?
" The Grand Emperor's head flickered between gloom and light, then said dejectedly: "I admit defeat.
But Yun Heavenly Venerable and Ling Heavenly Venerable I will never hand over to you, though we may yet discuss other matters.
" Shen Mu made as if to drive the seal again, and the Grand Emperor cried in panic: "Hold on!
This head of mine is worth nothing, merely visualized from Taichu Origin Stone, not to be compared with Yun Heavenly Venerable's soul, nor with Ling Heavenly Venerable's life! No matter how you humiliate me, I can never trade them with you!
We can trade for other things! " Shen Mu withdrew his hand and said doubtfully: "What else do you have to trade? Brother Grand Emperor, no disrespect, but to be frank, I hold the greatest treasure land in the Ancestral Court, enthroned over the Hundred Thousand Black Mountains, rich in mines and abundant in supplies!
And I trade besides with Gong Heavenly Venerable and Yan Heavenly Consort, so to be honest, I look down upon the paltry yield of your territory. If you mean to trade treasures from Qiang Heavenly Consort's territory, spare your breath. " The Grand Emperor's head sneered: "You call that Great Black Mountain of yours a treasure land? It would make a man laugh his teeth out!
Mu Heavenly Venerable, your Great Black Mountain is a place none of the Ten Heavenly Venerables would deign to glance at, only you treasure it like some precious lump! My territory in the Ancestral Court is also a treasure land, better than your Great Black Mountain by who knows how much, a place where baleful aura gathers. Of course, I will not trade it with you. " Shen Mu's heart stirred, and he asked humbly: "What is so particular about the baleful gathering land held by Qiang Heavenly Consort?
" The Grand Emperor laughed: "Nothing else, only that it is a natural God Execution Platform in the Ancestral Court.
" Shen Mu's heart pounded fiercely, and he said hoarsely: "A natural God Execution Platform?
" "Mu Heavenly Venerable, you are still too young.
" The Grand Emperor chuckled: "My treasure land is a natural God Execution Platform, while the treasure land of Langxuan Divine Emperor is the natural Yaochi Sacred Realm in the Ancestral Court!
And besides these, there are other treasure lands in this Ancestral Court, corresponding respectively to the Four Heavenly Gates, the Thousand Palaces and Myriad Halls, even the Jade Capital Holy City! Even the Chengtian Gate may be found in the Ancestral Court! Do you realize what that means? " Shen Mu's mind shook violently, and he cried out: "You mean there is a Heavenly Court from the Primordial Era in the Ancestral Court?
" "Wrong, not a Heavenly Court from the Primordial Era.
" The Grand Emperor said complacently: "Rather, the Heavenly Courts of later ages were all built to the measure of the treasure lands in the Ancestral Court of the Primordial Era.
